Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Yup. Took advantage of the deal at Competitive Cyclist after Andy talked me OUT of more expensive wheels. They ride very nicely, and I LOVE how they look with the Ti frame.

I'm also waiting for mine, but from PBK. I'm too anxious.

I put some Wald folding baskets on the commuter yesterday. The baskets themselves are quite nice and they came with nice removable liner bags, but the mounting hardware that came with them is absolutely horrid. Thin strips of metal that looks like it is going to rust in a week, erector set nuts and bolts, and not so much as a lock washer. I had to bend the snot out of the brackets to get them around my rack and they don't hang quite right. I will have to figure out some better mounting out of my junk drawers.

This is quite frustrating because I really like folding baskets, and Wald is a good name. I wish they offered a QD bracket as an aftermarket addon.

Shimano 105 compact crank and Ultegra BB (out of 105 BB at performance - big sale this weekend). I always wanted a full group. Bike came with a FSA Vero compact. Cromoly spindle weighed a ton.

My Crank Bros. Blue Candy 3 pedals just came in from my LBS. Now if Nashbar would HTFU and ship my new shoes so I can mount the candies... I guess that's my karma for going outside of my LBS

Still waiting for this one to arrive on the doorstep. Just because the Brooks nearly made sure there wouldn't be a second child.

Tubes. Replaced the front tube on Saturday due to a broken stem (using my last one) only to have the back tube blow out on my ride. *sigh*

Just got this in today and wow night and day difference compared to my cheap bontrager helmet. Yes I know it has world champion stripes. Yes I know I will never be a world champion I know this. But it matches my bike (Matte Black blue and white) and my LBS jersey (Red, White, and Green) so it works for me.
